"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

Last year's competition^

Hello all, GTP here yet again. About 2 years ago, AAAgent began a competition to eliminate Approach Anxiety. Nearly 30 guys entered, myself included and I finished in the Top 4 in a 4-way tie with Robyn, PrettyBoyAJ and another guy whose name slips me at the moment. I launched the 2nd annual competition last year and together with Robyn, we coordinated it and Roman81 emerged victorious.

This competiton has truly changed my daygame and killed my Approach Anxiety because it caused me to step out of my comfort zone. It's about to be spring soon, so as a new SS tradition, I am announcing the 3rd competition. I also want to give everybody ample time to sign up, so I think i'll give everybody about a week in order to do so.


That being said, if you want to start getting to work early, Like I said last year, who am I to stop ya?


Oh and all credit and creation of the original competition and general rules go to AAAgent.


Same rules apply as last year:

1.) No veterans allowed. We all know who you are. However, if you wana post tips, encouragement, etc. PLEASE do so.

2.) Tasks must be completed and posted on time. Estimated 1 week time span for each task/objective. Start on Monday and you must post by Sunday 11:59pm or you are eliminated.

3.) Encouragement and tips are highly recommended as to create better/more fierce competition so that we can better ourselves and better each other.

4.) Just because you fair well with the opposite sex doesn't mean you fair well in approaches/AA. If you are one of the guys that has women approach you but cannot approach, you're welcome to join in.

5.) Do not lie about your approaches/tasks. Even though we have no way of knowing whether or not you are lying, just be a man and accept defeat. Failure is evident on the path to success.

6.) You are to get a phone number if the tasks call you to do so. E-Mail, facebook, things that aren't phone numbers DO NOT count.
---
We will do a two strikes rule. If you fail to meet an objective twice, you are eliminated from the competition no ifs ans or buts. As each round progresses, the tasks will become more and more difficult.


Any questions, comments or concerns, please PM me or post them in this thread. Good luck to you all.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I'm in. This is exactly what I need. For the record, I'm planning on starting my own 30 day challenge of approaching an attractive woman everyday on Wednesday or Thursday.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

I'm the opposite. I can approach but I don't fare well with the opposite sex in general. Can I join?

I should be down for this, as long as I can keep the time moving. Should be able to work stuff in between classes on campus though. Won't hurt to get more under my belt. Demonpenz needs to get in and do this..

Looking forward to this competition's stories and burns :up:
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

I remember I entered last year but didn't have enough time to complete the tasks on time... and I almost definitely won't have time this year since I am writing a school leaving exam soon and have a lot of learning to do.

Still I want to join... at least try to do some of it. I've haven't really approached in a long time.

I'd like in...I don't really consider myself a veteran at approaching since i don't think i've ever made any approaches in the competition. So if you'll have me, i'm in.

I remember i created a spreadsheet for this the first time around, was interesting watching you guys duke it out.

I got you down.
Thanks Gray, ill be on campus forever since well I'm addicted to studying so this should work well. What's the main focus to get as many approaches as possible or we have to reach a fixed amount by a deadline ?

Count me in. I see this as a way to come out of my shell. Maybe this will help me stop stalling and start approaching random girls and start my own journal. (For real this time!) Will you guys also post motivational stuff here to keep everyone going on? That's what I need the most. Motivation. And someone to push me. And by someone, I mean my fellow DJ'ers. I'm excited.

Im a busy ass man, but I'd like the opportunity to join in :D

How do we get the challenges?
 

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.
